Dude, there's 65k+ of software for PPCs including taskmanagers.

I STRONGLY RECOMMEND buying iphone, if you cannot manage.

Or wait for w7.

Anyway, you may give away your device for poor ones, too.

So, maybe CLOSE them with any TASK MANAGER available....

Info for moderators:

Sorry, couldn't resist.

Can you imagine, there are people that are not aware, that "x" is not closing apps?...

Despite of all knowledge of the world, people, internet and FOCKIN twitter.
[General Questions and Answers] Tada1228:
Iphones are way too expensive. I know that there are task manager apps but none of them solve my problem. Iam saying that its annoying to constantly close apps in the background. It's also annoying to hit the tiny X button, which I know closes apps. The multitasking feature is useless to me and I want it disabled because it would make this phone much better for me. I am not a heavy power user, just a casual user.
[General Questions and Answers] kcbboy:
Multitasking can not be disabled. That basically defeats the purpose of android and having a smart phone. All you can do is use a task manager or task killer. Whatever you want to call it. I don't know how it doesn't solve your problem because what it does is close the app.
[General Questions and Answers] Tada1228:
See the thing is that android is a much better multitasker and I didnt see any performance drops when multitasking on a android phone. Windows mobile gets real slow and requires you to either soft reset or clean ram often. Yeah, I think iam done with windows mobile phones for now, Iam really looking forward to Windows phone 7. The perfect phone for casual users like me.
[General Questions and Answers] pupakota:
have you ever thought about mapping taskkiller to button....
[General Questions and Answers] duckythekiller:
Advanced Task Killer can end apps on screen-off. I use this keeps phone running smoothly. Can also be set to do it at a timed interval.
[General Questions and Answers] xdappppppnnn1:
You can use app from google play store name Ram Manager Pro this app can manage options multitasking and swap file. When you check more multitasking then depending from your available ram android will keep in memory lot of apps or reverse will be better for games with free memory for hard gaming. You can use swap file 256 mb recommended and swampiness to 80. I have multitasking set at full.

I've been using 08.22 for a while now and its the best so far (thats for Montreal all the way to Toronto) I've tried all radio ROMs and the last two, well they were not as good.

But that's only my opinion.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saj222:
I am using 15.14 in the GVA. It works well but I sometimes seem to get a little signal fluctuation. It could be my imagination though.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theSpam:
I recently read something similar. The poster believed that 08.22 is the radio revision that most closely matches with Telus' shipping radio (63.18.55.06DAU_6.35.08.20).

Here's hoping that when the 2.1 updates reaches Telus, HTC will release a Telus-optimized radio!

Heya Telus peeps, anyone ever get a weird text message from 16005000014.

Every time I reboot, or come into service (when I was out of service) I get a text message from 16005000014 that's either blank or says how many voicemail messages I have. I do still get the regular voice mail notification in the top status bar.

Anyone else?

Thanks

Hello there,

I was charging my Qtek normally with it's original charger. My sister umplugged it a couple of times to charge up her notebook.

My Qtek won't charge anymore. It's working fine. It turns on, I can use it normally. But It won't charge.

My guess is that something happend to the mini usb plug or circuit, because it won't charge with it's charger, neither with USB cable plugged in the computer. And it can't communicate with the computer trought the cable too. Bluettoh works fine with Actve sync.

Someone have any clue about what happened?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] My21Is!:
Same thing happens to me today...

I'll show in the Qtek...

But I think that "usb plug" is "unplugged" from motherboard...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] My21Is!:
Visualy no problem with my usb plug... Welds are well...

So, the problem is IN the USB PLUG ????

I Haven't opened it yet. I'm travelling, and I don't have the proper tools. But tomorrow I'll be back home and I can say if something physical happened.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] My21Is!:
So rocksull ? USB Plug is dead ?

I bought the connector and and external charger too (5$) with a battery (6$) on EBAY...

But usb plug is sent from USA, so I'll receive it in two weeks...

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] rockskull:
Well.

I opened up my Qtek. The welds were messed up (Cold Solder). I'm just waiting a friend that has a soldering station to see if we can re-solder the plug. I'll post results soon.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] My21Is!:
Hello Rocksull,

So, It's good for you ?

I tried soldering USB plug, but welds are too small...

So actually I'm using an external battery charger... :(((((((

Bye,
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] rockskull:
I was able to solder the plug back, because I work with that.

It charged again, but the battery didn't last 1 minute. I opened again and saw that the circuit is also messed up. There's one or two transistors burnt, a little capacitor.

Anyway... I gave up. I was about to buy a new cell phone anyway, and I can use the other componentes (LCD screen, camera, etc) to build some projects. =D.

I was able to solder woth a hot air soldering station (I don't know of that's the name) and some liquid weld. We have this stuff because we work with SMD components.
[Droid X General] exempli_gratia:
Anyone use the Timer app (2nd tab on Alarms app)? The sound is particularly anemic.

The DX's speaker in general is not too loud. Somehow several of the reviews specifically praised the speaker. Are some louder than others?
[Vibrant General] fociz:
Coming from the MT3G and almost always using wired headphones as i talk on the phone while driving etc.

The call volume is way friggin low on this phone man..really dissapointed atm, volume is all the way up and using the same earphones i did on my last phone.

The ear buds that come with the phone are terrible. I played Avatar and the sound this thing puts out is very tinny and hollow and to add insult to injury it's volume is substandard.

If im missing something plse let me know.

Thx.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glaiel Gamer:
My phone is running build FRF33B (googling this build number returned no results at all). It was a non public build. I got the phone from Adobe as part of a (kongregate) promotion to get flash developers to edit some games so they could run on froyo, and hence I really don't know what was done to the phone before I got it (there's an unlocked symbol when it boots, and even though it's a t-mobile nexus I'm using it on AT&T's network).

FRF33B is nice and usable (but full of minor bugs which get irritating after a while), and I'd really like to update to the latest stable build, but it's not receiving any of the OTA updates, and trying to install any manually gives me a package signing verification failure.

Does anyone here know how I can update the phone? Do I need to downgrade it somehow? Do I need to root it? Any help would be appreciated.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdmoore81:
Downgrade to erd79 would be my best suggestion and it will update to frf91 I hope that helps and if u need a update zip let me know and I can email it to u
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rohandhruva:
Or just unlock your phone, put a custom recovery, and install whatever ROM you want. Look at the sticky in the development section for details.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crawler9:
Option 3: Search around for the FRF91 Universal update.zip, copy it to your SD card, and flash it via stock recovery.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glaiel Gamer:
ok I've done this, and flashed the universal FRF91, now the phone is stuck on the animated X, is this normal? Do I just have to wait or did I do something wrong?

edit: it looks like it just rebooted itself.... still not getting past the animated x part though

edit: wiped the phone and tried again, now it works... got to set up everything on the phone again though and download my apps again... oh well. thanks for the help

[Legend General] Karooluss:
Hi everyone:) today I just sold my X10, and I'm gonna foucs on something other, like HTC LEGEND :) I red something abut the phone, everything looks brilliant:):), but I'd like to hear some opinions about the speaker ?? Is the quality of music and earspeaker good? In X10 voice from earphone was poor, sometimes I coludn't hear my caller, when I was driving car it was annoying.. The music from the speaker wasn't aslo the most powerful. It was a little quiet, and I'm curios about the situation in HTC LEGEND:)
[Legend General] duckdown:
The built in loudspeaker output is poor, especially if you're assigning an MP3 as a ringtone. I'm always missing calls because it's not very loud
[Legend General] noobdeagle:
The legend is very loud but because it sits flat on its back it really muffles the sound. Just remember to put it on a non flat surface or put it upside down. Is say its a design over sight
[Legend General] Karooluss:
So finally what ?? :) As I can see, Legend has loud speaker but putting it on back mufles the sound and now it isint loud ?
[Legend General] robto:
Unfortunately, HTC is not very famous for the speaker sound quality. The speaker is poor and a free hands conversation is ... depressing : )
[Legend General] noobdeagle:
In direct comparison with the x10 the legend sounds much better. My friend has the x 10 and it sounds awful
[Legend General] Karooluss:
I was completely disappointed when I first opened the package with my x10 turned it on and played the music sample in mediascape:-\ such as type of headset and so poor quality both from speaker and headset :o i don't need the phone playing like hifi but it must be audible outdoor, not like x10:-( s far the best speaker for me has n95 , next samsung Wave...
[Legend General] gaga111:
the speaker quality is okay when hearing music, as long as you dont turn up the volume too much

the loudness is good as well imo

but the headphones u get with the phone are awful... :(
[Legend General] cr4yo:
It was a mistake to design the phone with the speaker on the back. It should have been on top (Nokia E71) or at the bottom (iPhone 4).

On top of that, the maximum volume is not very loud. It's too bad because the rest of the phone is great. But this flaw might just be a dealbreaker for me if they don't fix it ;(
[Legend General] RomNoR:
Indeed the problem is as many have stated, that the speaker is on the back.

When the phone is lying on it's back you get about 60% volume decrease on the speaker. Bad design.

I can live with this though, i love the phone other than this, and the 3,5mm jack problem :(
[EVO 4G Accessories] uclajw1:
Anyone know if an aluminum battery cover exist for the EVO? I would imagine it would help out a lot with heat dissipation.
[EVO 4G Accessories] jigglywiggly:
I would assume that would make your pants and hand hot.

Though my pants are hot enough :p
[EVO 4G Accessories] Geniusdog254:
It would look badass.

It'd be really hard to machine it though, so I don't expect one anytime soon.
[EVO 4G Accessories] chazglenn3:
I suspect it might screw with the reception of the antennas arrayed around the edge of the back.
[EVO 4G Accessories] wuclan48:
I'd also imagine it would not look pretty for very long. It would get scratched and/or dented easily.
[EVO 4G Accessories] phobos512:
Well the original Droid and Droid X both have metal covers, and my old Motorola v.60 was a totally metal phone...They're common enough and certainly more durable than plastic. With a brushed or black anodized finish it would hold up just fine.

i've done a little of playing with it, so far works fairly well, i was able to overclock to 625 but 604 seems most stable but drains battery a substantial amount. i'll test a little more and update my little review on it later
[XPERIA X2 General] titus1:
I've always getting an "ERROR" whenever I'm trying to run it.
[XPERIA X2 General] kronos1:
l guess you have to be connected to ac charger while using this app..and just test it now..yap same thing while on charger..when u try to increase to 604 it displays "quite"option and "deatail"option...only way to open again app is to reset phone.
[XPERIA X2 General] titus1:
Ok, yesterday I've cleared my X2 because of some apps that I've already deleted but still messing with my X2. the 7KCpuSpeed can run but only up to 528Mhz, beyond that and you'll going to get "ERROR". And the setting "apply speed at boot" is greyed out. Or perhaps it was V1 bug.

So I re-install all my apps including this one (7kCpuSpeed)V2 and to my surprise, it behaves dif'rently...it was running smoothly! I just did tap the 604Mhz, tap Menu and the option "apply speed at boot" is not in grey anymore...it can be set. then did soft-reset.

And this is the result when i open the app again.

And I'm like...IS THIS FOR REAL?

And you might want to ask, has the SPEED improve....YES, A LOT!

And didn't encounter any "ERROR" whatsoever even if it wasn't plugged on AC. And yes, it has a big effect on battery life.
[XPERIA X2 General] amk:
so all to do is only install file V2 and run right?

or do you have any instruction to warn...
[XPERIA X2 General] titus1:
To be honest..I don't have any idea ;)

Might just be a better version of this app
[XPERIA X2 General] yummy-fun:
these were the same results i was getting, didn't know if it was just me or not, but it'll only run for a little bit then after like 3 minutes it'll shut down. but at 604 it is real stable and run for a while, even when off the charger
[XPERIA X2 General] titus1:
Never had an experience of my X2's shutting down. Are you on V2?
[XPERIA X2 General] yummy-fun:
my mistake, what i meant to say is the application will close out, then i'll have to soft-restart my phone in order to start the app again. and no, i'm still running v1 at the moment
[XPERIA X2 General] yummy-fun:
just downloaded v2, wow what an improvement.

to test to see if it actually works i've timed certain things. (at 604 mhz)

before increase speed: start>lock 4.2 sec

after: immediately!

before: open opera mini 5: 21 sec

after: 12 sec

ffVIII in fpsece (landscape): averaging 15-28 fps

after (landscape): averaging 25-40 fps

the last one is especially useful

now i have a favor to ask, could some of you other people try some of these tests on your own and post your results to confirm my tests?
[XPERIA X2 General] titus1:
Same thing happens to when I'm still on V1. If I pushed it beyond 604, I'll get an ERROR.
[XPERIA X2 General] rayrence:
anyone fimiliar with the Mortscript file for xperia x2? does we need that script to keep the overclock's file running? or just v2 file is enuff? i heard that we hav to run the apps everytime we switch on the phone~ im dumb in programming~ plz help ~ :o
[XPERIA X2 General] xman.xhame:
well I have tested this program, to be fair It's good when the phone is plugged into the charger and it rocks the socks out of the device with 1052 MHz.

But when you unplug it, it goes back to 528Mhz.

[Captivate Themes and Apps] madjsp:
So, Launcher Pro + has just been released, and he's charging 3 bucks for it.

This is my question, How do I get it onto my rooted Captivate? I know it's only 3 dollars, but I'd rather know how to get it on before I actually buy it. Know what I mean?

It isn't available in the market yet, so we have to send him a paypal directly.

Launcherpro.com
[Captivate Themes and Apps] systoxity:
side load it with droid explorer? That guy did a great job with launcher pro.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] sKyZ:
Quit being cheap and support a developer that worked hard to make a beautiful piece of software.

As you said, it's only 3 dollars.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] madjsp:
This is my first android phone. I promise developers will get my money but you have no reason to call anyone cheap. It was a question. If you have a problem with my questions don't read them.

So, what is droid explorer?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] systoxity:
oh i didnt see that you wanted to know how to do it illegally. Droid explorer is program that helps sideload apps. Just do a search for captivate and droid explorer or look through our sideloading apps threads.

On the piracy note, its not ok to discuss such things here because not only is it morally incorrect but xda has to own up for the activities of its users.

btw, because the new launcher pro + costs money, i highly recommend getting the launcher pro regular. Launcher pro truly shines in its speed and flexibility not its widgets. You can always dl more widgets for free from the marketplace. Ofc i will buy his launcher pro + when it comes to market just on principle because of the great launcher alternative he has provided free of charge for everyone to use.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] madjsp:
No I wans buy it but I don't know how to put non market apps on my phone. It is rooted though. Does that help?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] systoxity:
sho does, you should pay for it and then he will provide you with an apk to install it with. Droid explorer can take care of the rest. There are other alternatives as well. You should read the sideloading apps threads here in the captivate forums because there is alot of information you should go over b4 attempting and getting frustrated and giving up. Post for help there if you still dont understand after reading through :).
[Captivate Themes and Apps] madjsp:
Thanks! And just to clear the air, I do not believe in piracy. Developers work too hard on their products. I've paid for most of my programs with Nokia and Apple, just as I will here. I just didn't know how to do it!

I'll look up droid explorer and read that thread. Thanks for the help
[Captivate Themes and Apps] wpb2:
Launcher Pro is a mad awesome app. I would pay 10.00 or more for it. I swear my Captivate is TWICE as fast as The iPhone 4 i just returned to At&t.

The dev states it will be in the App market soon, at least thats how I took it from reading his website.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] SlimJ87D:
You are being very mean to the poster. He said he doesn't want to buy it if he doesn't know he can use it. You want him to buy it if he can't use it?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] sKyZ:
I'm stating that he should buy it. If it doesn't work I can almost guarantee that the developer would give him a refund.

Next time you're at a car dealership, steal a car for me so I can drive it for a week.... I want to make sure it "works" with my style of driving before I purchase it.. :rolleyes:
[Captivate Themes and Apps] dsjr2006:
Launcher Pro in the market is almost exactly the same as the plus version, but without the custom widgets included. Other than that it's the same. No need to steal.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Bjd223:
He didnt say anything about pirating it. He said he wants to buy it but is not sure how to install a non market app. He is just doing a little pre purchase research.

Would you buy a car before or after you learned to drive?
